And most comically, they are running on Windows 7, not their latest FW which is Windows 8. Don’t believe me? Here’s a closer up picture to prove it (and you can click the picture above for the full version of it, I cut it down so it would look appropriate in the opening)

Let’s have a closer look at that PC…

I am disappointed in this, being as even in an interview with EA’s COO, Peter Moore even said to Geoff Keighley in an interview after the showcasing of the Xbox One’s press conference, that it was running on the Xbox One, but was it? Being as the screen featured the command ‘backspace’ it may not have been….

However, I was directed to a link that shows that the Xbox One was being used. During a demo this photo was taken by someone, which prooves the game was running on Xbox hardware;

Jonathan Blow, creator of The Witness, tweeted the discovery and he got a few responses from Xbox devs.

So it seems that only the demo running on PC was LocoCycle, made by Twisted Pixel. And the game Fantasia, a new Rythm game from Harmonix was actually running on Xbox hardware, but was it only those games? Who knows if it was more games that were running on Nvidia powered PC’s. Maybe it was just that game? Also, in response to this article by my boss, wololo, it has been confirmed that all PS4 games were running on dev kits, Jonathan Blow and also *** Punches Jason Connell confirmed that inFamous: Second Son was running on dev kits also.

The following tweets are from Mr. Blow;

It is not true as the article says that “all E3 demos run on hi-end PCs". The Witness was running on PS4 dev hardware, and it looked to me like all the other PS4 games were running on dev kits as well.

Dev hardware is the hardware that will be in the final retail box, but in a less consumer-oriented package.

Dev kits almost always have more RAM yeah. Better CPU+GPU, no…

All the indies I know were running on the PS4.

We worked very hard to get our game running on the actual PS4 hardware and operating system in time for the show. As did many other devs.

And this was from Mr. Connell;

Yup, we were definitely on a dev kit. [For inFamous: Second Son]

For those who haven’t seen it, PlayStation has released a ‘Greatness Awaits video, and pretty much everything was live action, apart from the dragon and monsters, of course.

Now when PlayStation tweeted it, they said it contained 35 secrets, can you find them all?

yea jus werd being on laptop n havng to go tough start menu to get to desktop view i like there apps n marketstore thing from the start menu n the new thing like having the desktop n like media player on the screen at the same time doing a split screen thing cool so yea windows 8 not that shity n a bit alright jus differnt. what is cool is windows 8 n google thing i tried a demowindows eight or sumthing n i wen installing the windows 8 it let me log on to my google account like a remote guest account or login to a local host

looks like that devkit could upgrade sumwat looks like single core slot i put an icebox keep it cool n a bigger antena for the wifi n bluetooth and like a netserver(for lannetplay) with like four ps3 for media n storage n cross play

game sounds good. i would have had fun with a devkit i guessing cant real tweek with the devkits since the cpu n gpu should be able to work with the retail games but tweeek with its ports like the video n sound out but then heard they were rentals(devkit)so guess couldent do much hardware. but i guess the retail units should je good ebough… herd ebay 360..

Not to defend the console/company, but isn’t this really common practice? It would be a damn sight easier to debug than running on an actual Xbone. Also, In previous years, 360 games have been demoed on Mac Pro boxes. Look it up, it’s pretty funny.

it is a common practice, but companies say it, they tell you it’s not running on actual console hardware but on PC, unlike in this case where they were told it was running on actual xbox one console, when it clearly wasn’t

I doubt they’d go for OtherOS, for one they’d force you to run a windows OS and two, they would make you pay for the license, and most likely would run the tablet version of windows 8 so they don’t have to worry about losing sales. If Sony still goes for otherOS, they’ll probably have linux only (although I doubt they will do OtherOS)

sony should reintroduce otherOS to the ps3, what harm will it do? the system is already cracked wide open and they will now focus mainly on the ps4. Man I missed the days of otherOS, having to battle against the ps3 lack of ram, tweaking every little aspect of the system, mixing different desktop managers and window managers, different apps, etc to get a really nice OS running, and in the end, I DID IT! I got an OS that ran just as well as my PC and had very good graphics. Man those were the days

live cd n google os got going with outher os i would have thought.. n yeah sony should have outher os for the ps3 like android media player but then its androd n dont think sony like pirating though most of there games r digital.. but heard sony was going to retire the ps3 so would be nice if could have a ps3 with linux.. i remeber watching windows load on a psp. that was prety cool but outher os was one of the main reason wy i like the ps3.

sony has said they’re farewells to other os over the compromises of the game os involved

Microsoft on the other hand has an in house os at they’re full control

plus Microsoft never cared about using a good user interface anyway, look at all the different 360 dashboard changes and complete rebuilds(and all those paid custom themes that don’t work on the newer gui’s)

and win 8 is designed to be cheap its only $14 to update from 7 to 8 and $49.98 for win 8 premium full install $98.98 for win 8 pro and ult

win 8 is *** though…its still more bi-polar then my ex-girlfriend…..why anyone want an android os on a pc anyway????

i dont mind buying the feature of other os, its not like its that different from a game you buy on xbl, it requires updates and patches for the servers and equipment,and buying it would help fund such software and hardware to continue to improve, unlike other os on the ps3 were sony never fixed any of the bugs of the software,just removed it

and having a dedicated os for the system works alot better then a bunch of really old power-PC linix builds that have no support other then the users of the feature

and windows is the most used and user friendly os’s on the market with support from just about anyone with a pc(a collective of over 80 billion users)with updates for legacy forms of windows(95,98,me and so on) still getting patches to this day.

other os on the xb1 is a very interesting idea with many benefits that can easily blow sony’s (power-PC)Linux support to the dark ages

if they do add it ill definitely look into a xb1 as a decent power house media device

oh and if you pay for a feature on a system, legally they cant take it away from you without refunding your money and all money invested into the feature(anti-virus’s and other paid/one system use programs)this is how sony was able to git away with removing other os, as it was a free service that they can remove at any point

exe: games removed from psn are still permanently available to users that paid for them, like phantasy star portable 2 and the ninja turtles arcade game

i think windows is popular cuz back n the days they was made more to be cheap so more people bought windows n it is easier to install frstwire on windows then linux but it is more hacked then macs n well linux is mainly for like computer programing… microsoft did ood with the 49 dallers for windows eight made upgradeing easy since useto have to pay like a hundred fifty for windows 7 ultimate..

well heard after flash player was inter-grated in to the operating system i so heard that windows was more virus prown cuz more people used windows but yea mac nowadays been getting more virus.. mainly they jus writing the windows one now for macs.

yea but then u think n its like ur on windows 7 n ur like running steam n it was devkit for an xboxone with windows 7 with like a xbox one ui like steam but a xbox one that links to xbox live.. so the devkits dont virtuly emulate the xboxone tought cuz if it did u would have to have two ui windows n xbox xmb n trying to emulate a gameboy colar on a pentium with ht is still slow if u dont have the right buffering n dedicacate hard ware n the xbox first one mech assult softmod devkit was jus pc with bois which work for game teasting.. so then its a pc with a big oh type gaming rig to it making a nice devkit of an xbox one think lag though new mother boards a three core slot board with four android arm cpu for each core slot with andoird ram n pc ram intergrated graphic pu i would have like a pc for that..

so then the xbox one devkits then did run the xbox one game on xbox one hardware i think…. its that weird thing with the green light in the photo that the xbox one mpdqan… looks like a fat cpu but the board is like a intel mini itx …

but outher os was removed software wise from the ps3 think it was removed altogetther in the new slimer slims but i would think that one could jus write it into a custume ps3 firmwarebut then u need like a cfw with like 3.40 3.55 .4.29. 3.++ 1.++

the gpu in tue xbox one is the same as in the devkits jus the devkits loooks like theres two.. so graphics would be prety much the same probly duel hdmi out for the devkit and a direct hdmi for the xbox one hard ware
